How to resolve AdBlock issue? NORTH LAKEPORT, Calif. – A small wildland fire burned in the north Lakeport area on Thursday afternoon.
The fire was dispatched just before 3 p.m. in the 2700 block of Scotts Creek Road, according to Cal Fire Battalion Chief Greg Bertelli.
Shortly after 3:30 p.m., Bertelli said the fire was at about three acres and 50 percent contained.
Two hand crews, two engines, two dozers, Copter 101 – which had earlier been on a fire incident in the Morgan Valley area near Lower Lake – and an engine and water tender from Lakeport responded, Bertelli said.
Bertelli said early indications are that the fire may have started from debris burning.
He urged people to be particularly cautious with burns because of the dry conditions.
